My first sign of getting old was when players became too old to perv over because they were old enough to be my sons. That was a very very sad day.

I have noticed lately that scrolling down to enter my age on a website has become quite a lengthy exercise...

Had a call with my team at work today, with people dialling in from different offices. The phone in one office kept cutting in and out and I referenced Norman Collier. The boss pointed out that of about a dozen people on the line, only she and I are old enough to know what i was on about.

JESUS WEPT :WALL: HOW MANY TIMES?????
£20 a ticket and £15 on beer and merchandise.....so an away fan is worth £35. At best, 1,000 is the average away support split across 11 rounds and I am being really generous here, so Toronto, replacing say Wakefield will cost a SL club £35,000.
The minimum turnover of a SL club is £4,000,000 so Toronto instead of Widnes is worth less than 1% of a SL clubs turnover.

There are many valid reasons for and against expansion into America, but "AWAY FANS" isn't one of them. :BEAT:

The last pair of chinos I bought for work were 97% cotton 3% elastane. Feel the stretch.

Myself & a colleague (him late 30s) were discussing a meeting with a consultant who turns out to be called Paul King. Obviously I broke out into "Love and Pride". Colleague looks at me bemused. Turns out he was 4 when it came out :shock: :shock: :shock:
